The ongoing legal spat between Michael Jackson and Debbie Rowe, over custody of her children, has spilled out into the media again.

This time court documents have been released that show that Rowe originally received $5M from Jackson, when they divorced and she agreed to give up the children. On top of that, she also received a mansion in Beverly Hills and an allowance of $900K per annum (until she started speaking about Jackson in public).

Other documents released quote Rowe as saying:

"I have just been advised by Michael's 'inner circle' that he is abusing drugs and I was even given the name of the physician that is prescribing all of Michael's medications, which I fear is dangerous not only to Michael but also to the children."

Six months after hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans, Michael Jackson's much vaunted single allegedly designed to help the victims may actually be released; soon.

In a telephone interview from Dubai last week, Sheik Abdullah bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the son of Bahrain's king, is quoted as saying:

"The record is coming along great. We've been taking our time to perfect it and mix it."

The working title for the single is now "I Have This Dream". Guest artists, according to the Prince, include; Snoop Dogg, R. Kelly, Ciara, Keyshia Cole, James Ingram, Jackson's brother Jermaine, Shanice, the Rev. Shirley Caesar and the O'Jays.

The Prince said that the release has been delayed because additional artists wanted to contribute.
